What it is

A restorative resort that heals and pampers you inside and out, with genomic testing, doctors, naturopaths and spa treatments galore.

What it isn't

Boring. Activities here include such unexpected thrills as soap carving and mantra meditations in the dance studio.

What we think

You know a wellness retreat is a good one when you feel instantly relaxed the moment you step foot in your room. Here, all 54 choices are calming, starting with Anchan Rooms, with their terraces overlooking the sea, blonde wood details, fully separate living rooms and wardrobes, and (YES) doting butler service. Want to sprawl out even further? The resort’s brand new Thai Pavilions are tucked in exultant and jungly gardens, with private terraces and surprising yet luxe guest amenities that range from morning lime rituals (a treat you never knew you needed) to personal journals so you can record every moment of this blissful experience.

You're here because

You’ve been feeling bogged down lately, and are in desperate need of a re-set. The resort’s myriad experts, including naturopaths, Chinese medicine specialists, yoga pros, and more, will have you feeling brand spanking new.

The Moment

After a dip in the paradisiacal outdoor saltwater pool, you’re feeling peckish, but not gluttonous. Thankfully, the resort’s organic produce (grown on site) and fresher than fresh Siam-inspired dishes await.
